Steelers legend L.C. Greenwood is the closest he’s ever been to a gold jacket following the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Wednesday announcement of 2026 finalists. Greenwood was named one of three finalists from the “seniors” category, joining Ken Anderson and Roger Craig. Two other finalists were announced: Robert Kraft (contributor) and Bill Belichick (coach). […]
Four Steelers didn’t participate due to injury in Pittsburgh’s Wednesday practice report. Those players included linebacker Patrick Queen (glute), quarterback Aaron Rodgers (left wrist), outside linebacker T.J. Watt (toe), and defensive tackle Derrick Harmon (knee).

The Buffalo Bills have added veteran cornerback Darius Slay Jr. to their 53-man active roster, per a report by ESPN senior NFL insider Adam Schefter. The soon-to-be 35-year-old Slay has played for three teams in 13 NFL seasons. Slay was more recently with the Pittsburgh Steelers, whom he had signed a one-year, $10 million contract […]
Despite the Eagles and Darius Slay reportedly having mutual interest in reuniting after the veteran CB was waived by the Steelers, he’ll be headed to the Buffalo Bills, instead. Slay needed to clear waivers in order for him to make his way back to Philly, but the Bills ended up putting in a claim and […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers have lost three of their last four games and are noticeably struggling on offense. Their most recent seven-point performance has raised frustrations among Black and Gold faithful and even some players. Tight end Pat Freiermuth has taken a step back in the offense this season with the emergence of Darnell Washington and […]
The Buffalo Bills dominated time of possession with methodical drives that eventually led to a pretty decent scoring day. That’s gotten a lot of rightful attention, but none of that would have happened if it weren’t for a dominant defensive performance that defines “complementary football.” The Bills managed a meager three points in the first […]
The Steelers signed linebacker Kana’i Mauga to the practice squad Wednesday, the team announced. Pittsburgh had an open spot after releasing wide receiver Cornell Powell on Tuesday. Mauga went undrafted in 2022. He’s since had stints with the Denver Broncos, Las Vegas Raiders, and Los Angeles Chargers over his NFL career. Mauga, 25, has played […]
A member of the Steelers’ 2025 draft class could be making his NFL debut before the season ends. The team announced Wednesday that it has opened the 21-day practice window for cornerback and kick returner Donte Kent, who was a Steelers’ seventh-round pick this year. Kent was placed on injured reserve in late August before […]
The Ravens (6-6) are 5.5-point favorites for their upcoming game against the Steelers (6-6), a surprising line considering the two teams’ even record and history of competitive matchups. Both teams lost in Week 13. The Ravens were embarrassed by the Bengals at home on Thanksgiving, while the Steelers got run over by the Bills. That […]
The MLB Hot Stove is finally ready to start heating up.

The calls for the Pittsburgh Steelers to move on from Mike Tomlin are louder than they have ever been. Fans chanting “Fire Tomlin” at the end of the Steelers’ 26-7 loss to the Buffalo Bills encapsulated the frustration that has finally boiled over after years of mediocrity. But it’s not just fans and media saying […]
Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin tried to relate to local reporters during his weekly press conference on Tuesday. The Steelers are 6-6 and have lost five of their last seven games. They haven’t won a playoff game in eight years and are tied for first place in the AFC North. Pittsburgh is tied with Baltimore, […]
Ville Koivunen is one of the Pittsburgh Penguins most talented young players and will hopefully be a long-term part of their future. In his brief time in the organization he has been a dynamic scorer at the AHL level, but has not yet been able to turn that into results or production in the NHL. […]
After being a healthy scratch for the Steelers in Week 13, Pittsburgh announced that they were releasing the former Eagles CB, Darius Slay. Rumors quickly started swirling about the veteran Super Bowl winner returning to the Eagles, but John Clark of NBC Sports reported on Wednesday that there was mutual interest in a reunion. When […]

The Pittsburgh Pirates finished the 2025 season with a 71-81 record placing them at the bottom of the NL Central division and outside of the postseason. Since the team finished with a less than stellar standing, they will be entered into the 2026 MLB Draft Lottery with a shot at selecting first overall. This year […]
